The project will investigate how cultural variation in practical ethics and norms of repair might impact on the interpretation, implementation and contestation of the ideas of a circular and bio-based (CBB) economy.
Through a series of study visits, interviews and other deliberative engagements with practitioners and theorists of repair, it will undertake a discursive and deliberative exploration of practical ethics and norms of repair in contrasting disciplines and cultures, focusing on the prevalence and significance of ethics of care and legibility. It will compare and contrast the interpretations, values and norms revealed in repair practices of restoration, reconstruction, remediation, reconciliation and reconfiguration with those found in CBB economy policy and promotion, so as to derive lessons and recommendations for the effective development of such policy from a better understanding of the normative motivations and constraints influencing repair practices.

WRAP works with governments, businesses and communities to deliver practical solutions to improve resource efficiency.
Our mission is to accelerate the move to a sustainable, resource-efficient economy by:
re-inventing how we design, produce and sell products,
re-thinking how we use and consume products, and
re-defining what is possible through re-use and recycling

The European Commission’s Circular Economy Action Plan unveiled today hits all the right notes to make ‘right to repair’ a reality in Europe. Promises will now need to be matched with concrete initiatives.
The most efficient way to recycle electronics todays is actually the dirty way. Manually unplug the chips of the boards to be reused but they lead to the visual in the following like with mountains of PCB and blackwater stream. The components recycled this way take less energy and bigger reuse value and build the backbone of lowering the cost of electronics products for developing markets.
Circular economy concepts are giving new hope to our planet which is littered with post-consumer waste – all manner of plastics, PET bottles, textiles and countless other materials which are the byproducts of excessive consumption.
Deko Eko wants to contribute to this significant change by accelerating the development of a circular economy marketplace. We propose an innovative upcycling platform which will completely change the way you think about waste. We turn waste into profit by facilitating the highest possible jump in value – from zero to a market-ready product.

The Fab City Global Initiative demonstrates our unique, multiscale way of working in the Full Stack Model . The Full Stack explains how the systems change from PITO to DIDO can be applied at the citizen, city and global level, enabled by shared values and physical infrastructure.
Il progetto LIFE+ LOWaste ha sperimentato a Ferrara un modello di economia circolare basata sulla prevenzione, il riuso e il riciclo dei rifiuti in una logica di partnership pubblico-privato. Partendo da alcune sperimentazioni pilota ha creato le basi per la nascita di un vero e proprio distretto locale di economia verde circolare. Distretto formato da operatori dei rifiuti, piccole piattaforme di recupero, artigiani e PMI impegnati nella valorizzazione delle materie e nella produzione di riprodotti.
